    Finn Harps on Saturday

    Just noticed Finn harps only lost once in the last 12 games, very late goal from Glen O Connor, very tough match coming up on Saturday, No Pat Sullivan either, I'd take a draw at this stage 7/2 with Boylesports

    A smart man puts a draw on Harps every time. We're the most frustrating team in world football to support.

    Why would you take a draw against a crowd of hatchet men who are ****e at football? Not saying we're going to win, but we should beat them, Pat Sullivan or no Pat Sullivan. Will no doubt be a tough game because Harps always are tough to play against, but hopefully another 3 points on the way for us.

    Won't be an easy game, never is against harps but from here on out we should be looking to win every game at home and not settle for a draw.

    Totally agree we should be looking for a win but I don't think we will get it, I will be more than happy to lose a few € if we win

    First game in months that I have a genuine bad feeling about simply becuase harps are a bunch of hackers that will kick and kick and kick until something goes there way so what we need to do is keep a good shape, keep our composure and whits about us and just try to play our own game and hope when a chance comes we take it. Going for a 1-0 town win. Next 3 weeks decide the title for me. C'mon de town

    0-0 draw and 11 serious injuries to the Longford team written all over it.

    The last of those to take place in the 60th minutes but Harps to focus on beating up the remaining players rather than scoring.

    Hackers? Are you basing that assumption on the amount of red cards we have received this season? Some terrible refereeing decisions and some heat of the moment stuff but we are not hackers. In the 2 games we have played against yous this season we have had 1 yellow card in each game!

    I'm basing it on every game I've ever seen us play against harps like it or not ye are a bunch of hatchet men and the fact ye have so many red cards this season proves it, referee can't have got them all wrong.

    There was maybe only 3 of those cards that were down to poor tackles. The others were poor refereeing decisions and dissent. I think you are being very harsh on Harps.

    This looks like a fun conversation. I'm looking forward to the game. Wonder do any of the bookies take bets on broken legs?

    9 red cards is it? And your telling us 6 of them were down to bad refereeing? I know this is the LOI but pull the other one pal. Ask any player in the league theyl tell ya harps and youths are the two biggest hatchet teams in the league

    10 red cards if you include the sending off for the manager. Don't worry, I'm sure we can get a few more yet.

    If the referee is doing is job right Sat night he'll have sent off 2 or 3 Harps players in the tunnel before the game!

    For kicking the referee. We're nothing but a bunch of hackers, of course. The players even kick each other on the bus journeys to the matches.

    And if the Harps players do their job right several of your squad will be in intensive care.

    Then they'll drown some particularly cute kittens.

    Not before kicking the kittens of course.....they have to live up to their reputation as out and out hackers! If this is what the Harps fans have been looking at all year I worry that they too will hack their way into the ground tomorrow. I think I might stay at home just to be safe!
